LAKEVILLE, Mass -- Police along with the Secret Service are investigating after a local country club discovered a symbol resembling a swastika carved into the green.
Lakeville County Club workers discovered the vandalism early Monday morning.
Carved into the green on the 18th hole was a swastika look-a-like next to President Barack Obama's name.
The vandals snuck in at night and carved their message of hate, according to the owner of the country club.
"We don't know if they did it with some type of cleated shoe, or they had some type of tool and this time of year to have that happen, it's a problem it's much harder to fix now," said Lou Mincone, the assistant manager of the Lakeville Country Club.
The manager is trying to figure out the best way to get rid of it.
Workers attempted to cover it temporarily with green spray paint; however, the symbol was carved too deep. They will now try to get turf from another area to fill in the message.
Work is scheduled to begin on Tuesday morning.
